Abstract
Dendrobium officinale polysaccharide (DP) was prepared with lactic acid bacterium fermentation to overcome the large molecular weight and complex structure of traditional DP for improving its functional activity and application range in this work. The structure was analyzed, and then the functional activity was evaluated using a mouse model of alcoholic liver damage. The monosaccharide compositions were composed of four monosaccharides: arabinose (0.13%), galactose (0.50%), glucose (24.38%), and mannose (74.98%) with a molecular weight of 2.13 kDa. The connection types of glycosidic bonds in fermented D. officinale (KFDP) were →4)-β-D-Manp(1→, →4)-β-Glcp(1→, β-D-Manp(1→, and β-D-Glcp(1→. KFDP exhibited an excellent protective effect on alcoholic-induced liver damage at a dose of 80 mg/kg compared with polysaccharide separated and purified from D. officinale without fermentation (KDP), which increased the activity of GSH, GSH-Px, and GR and decreased the content of MDA, AST, T-AOC, and ALT, as well as regulated the level of IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β to maintain the normal functional structure of hepatocytes and retard the apoptosis rate of hepatocytes. The results proved that fermentation degradation is beneficial to improving the biological activity of polysaccharides. The potential mechanism of KFDP in protecting alcoholic liver damage was inhibiting the expression of miRNA-150-5p and targeting to promote the expression of Pik3r1. This study provides an important basis for the development of functional foods.

Harvey DJ. Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021-2022. MASS SPECTROMETRY REVIEWS 2024. [PMID: 38925550 DOI: 10.1002/mas.21873] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2023] [Revised: 02/05/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
The use of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well-established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022. As with previous review, this review also includes a few papers that describe methods appropriate to analysis by MALDI, such as sample preparation, even though the ionization method is not MALDI. The review follows the same format as previous reviews. It is divided into three sections: (1) general aspects such as theory of the MALDI process, matrices, derivatization, MALDI imaging, fragmentation, quantification and the use of computer software for structural identification. (2) Applications to various structural types such as oligo- and polysaccharides, glycoproteins, glycolipids, glycosides and biopharmaceuticals, and (3) other general areas such as medicine, industrial processes, natural products and glycan synthesis where MALDI is extensively used. Much of the material relating to applications is presented in tabular form. MALDI is still an ideal technique for carbohydrate analysis, particularly in its ability to produce single ions from each analyte and advancements in the technique and range of applications show little sign of diminishing.

Abstract
Oxidoreductases have evolved tyrosine/tryptophan pathways that channel highly oxidizing holes away from the active site to avoid damage. Here we dissect such a pathway in a bacterial LPMO, member of a widespread family of C-H bond activating enzymes with outstanding industrial potential. We show that a strictly conserved tryptophan is critical for radical formation and hole transference and that holes traverse the protein to reach a tyrosine-histidine pair in the protein's surface. Real-time monitoring of radical formation reveals a clear correlation between the efficiency of hole transference and enzyme performance under oxidative stress. Residues involved in this pathway vary considerably between natural LPMOs, which could reflect adaptation to different ecological niches. Importantly, we show that enzyme activity is increased in a variant with slower radical transference, providing experimental evidence for a previously postulated trade-off between activity and redox robustness.

Abstract
The non-scientific disposal of antibiotics has resulted in massive contamination of the bioactive molecules in the aquatic ecosystem. The presence of antibiotics in the effluents limits the biodegradation of micropollutants by affecting the micro-ecological balance. Hence this study aims to remove doxycycline antibiotics from wastewater using biochar. Elemental analysis of the biochar revealed C, Si and N as most abundant content while BET analysis confirmed the mesoporous nature of the adsorbent. The XRD and Raman spectra confirmed amorphic sp2 carbon dominant structure in the biochar. The adsorption mechanism was predicted, correlating the charge distribution and FTIR analysis. The effects of different process parameters were studied using CCD, ANOVA, and RSM. Moreover, the different kinetic models revealed that the pseudo-second-order kinetics model was the best fit and film layer diffusion was the dominant contributor. The isotherm study indicated the high adsorption capacity of the biochar and its non-ionic nature. Thermodynamics study established the spontaneity and exothermic nature. The results suggested no significant change in antibiotic removal efficiency across different system (pond water (97.13%), river water (98.11%), seawater (96.84%), tap water (99.13%), and distilled water (99.74%)). For the desorption of the antibiotic from the biochar surface, 90% ethanol was the most efficient (98.9%), and upon recrystallization by solvent evaporation, 98.7% of the antibiotic of the initial load was recovered. Hence, the implementation of this described process would enable resource recovery along with water treatment, which is not possible with existing approaches. The cost analysis of the whole process revealed that biochar preparation was the bulk expense and the process would be self-sustainable even if the price of the recovered antibiotic would be set at less than half ($41/kg) of the current market price ($94/kg) of the API. Thus, the process endorses a successful circular economy approach toward societal and economic sustainability.

Abstract
Polyethylene terephthalate hydrolases (PETases) are a newly discovered and industrially important class of enzymes that catalyze the enzymatic degradation of polyethylene terephatalate (PET), one of the most abundant plastics in the world. The greater enzymatic efficiencies of PETases compared to close relatives from the cutinase and lipase families have resulted in increasing research interest. Despite this, further characterization of PETases is essential, particularly regarding their possible activity against other kinds of plastic. In this study, we exploited for the first time the use of the microalgal chloroplast for more sustainable synthesis of a PETase enzyme. A photosynthetic-restoration strategy was used to generate a marker-free transformant line of the green microalga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii in which the PETase from Ideonella sakaiensis was constitutively expressed in the chloroplast. Subsequently, the activity of the PETase against both PET and post-consumer plastics was investigated via atomic force microscopy, revealing evidence of degradation of the plastics.

Abstract
In this study, eight lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains, previously isolated from traditional and gluten-free sourdoughs, and selected for their potential in improving the sensory and rheological quality of bakery products, were screened against some common spoilage agents. The anti-mould activity was tested using strains of the species Fusarium graminearum, Aspergillus flavus, Penicillium paneum and Aspergillus niger. Regarding the antibacterial activity, it was assessed against four strains of the species Escherichia coli, Campylobacter jejuni, Salmonella typhimurium and Listeria monocytogenes. Furthermore, LAB strains were evaluated for their ability to produce exopolysaccharides, which are gaining considerable attention for their functional properties and applicability in different food industrial applications. A strain-specific behaviour against the moulds was observed. In particular, F. graminearum ITEM 5356 was completely inhibited by all the LAB strains. Regarding the antibacterial activity, the strains Leuconostoc citreum UMCC 3011, Lactiplantibacillus plantarum UMCC 2996, and Pediococcus pentosaceus UMCC 3010 showed wide activity against the tested pathogens. Moreover, all the LAB strains were able to produce exopolysaccharides, which were preliminarily characterized. The assessed features of the LAB strains allow us to consider them as promising candidates for single or multiple starter cultures for food fermentation processes.

Abstract
Understanding the structure and function of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs), copper enzymes that degrade recalcitrant polysaccharides, requires the reliable atomistic interpretation of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) data on the Cu(II) active site. Among various LPMO families, the chitin-active PlAA10 shows an intriguing phenomenology with distinct EPR signals, a major rhombic and a minor axial signal. Here, we combine experimental and computational investigations to uncover the structural identity of these signals. X-band EPR spectra recorded at different pH values demonstrate pH-dependent population inversion: the major rhombic signal at pH 6.5 becomes minor at pH 8.5, where the axial signal dominates. This suggests that a protonation change is involved in the interconversion. Precise structural interpretations are pursued with quantum chemical calculations. Given that accurate calculations of Cu g-tensors remain challenging for quantum chemistry, we first address this problem via a thorough calibration study. This enables us to define a density functional that achieves accurate and reliable prediction of g-tensors, giving confidence in our evaluation of PlAA10 LPMO models. Large models were considered that include all parts of the protein matrix surrounding the Cu site, along with the characteristic second-sphere features of PlAA10. The results uniquely identify the rhombic signal with a five-coordinate Cu ion bearing two water molecules in addition to three N-donor ligands. The axial signal is attributed to a four-coordinate Cu ion where only one of the waters remains bound, as hydroxy. Alternatives that involve decoordination of the histidine brace amino group are unlikely based on energetics and spectroscopy. These results provide a reliable spectroscopy-consistent view on the plasticity of the resting state in PlAA10 LPMO as a foundation for further elucidating structure-property relationships and the formation of catalytically competent species. Our strategy is generally applicable to the study of EPR parameters of mononuclear copper-containing metalloenzymes.
